I stepped out in the dirty rain,
Stood beneath the bog old crane
A young man in a strangers coat
Chains hanging ‘round his throat
Singing big crane drag me out
Big crane gonna lift my doubt
As I stood beneath the big old crane
I see the castle, I see the church,
Hear the bells down at Ode de Kirk
Big crane make it stop
Take away this ticking clock
Big crane drag me out
Big crane gonna lift my doubt
As I stood beneath the big old crane
Someone catch me if I fall
‘Cause I made my bed on the Berlin wall
Have mercy if I sleep
Rock me slowly rock me deep
Big crane hear my shout
Big crane gonna lift my doubt
As I stood beneath the big old crane
Take my seat on this train
Watch the city roll away
Big crane brought me back
Lifted me back on the tracks
Big crane heard my shout
Big crane gonna lift my doubt
As I stood beneath the big old crane
As I stood beneath the big old crane

Blue but I'm Free

Don’t ask me to talk
'Cause I don’t wanna fight
Don’t ask me to stay
'Cause I made up my mind
And I may be blue, baby
Blue but I’m free
It’s been seven days since I left home
You gave me seven weeks to go on my own
And I may be blue, baby
Blue but I’m free
Tell me how does it feel to be on your own?
Tell me how does it feel to be on your own?
Does it make you blue, baby
Blue as the Danube?

Don't Go

I thought I found a four leaf clover
But it had only three
Buried in the dirt beneath my feet
I thought I saw a thousand flowers
Blowing across the beach
But it was only rubbish from the streets
I thought we’d built an ivory tower
To stand the test of time
But now I see the cracks all up it’s side
When the stones came tumbling down
And landed in the sea
I could feel you holding onto me saying
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t go
I’ve got one foot on the boat
The other is on the shore
And I can’t keep my balance anymore
And if absence makes the heart grow fonder
Then I think I need more time
‘Cause I have trouble staying in the lines
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t go
